| Zusammenfassung: | "Walter M. Fitch, a pioneer in the study of molecular evolution, has written this cogent overview of why creationism fails with respect to all the fundamentals of scientific inquiry. He explains the basics of logic and rhetoric at the heart of scientific thinking, shows what a logical syllogism is, and tells how one can detect that an argument is logically fallacious, and therefore invalid, or even duplicitous. Fitch takes his readers through the arguments used by creationists to question the science of evolution. He clearly delineates the fallacies in logic that characterize creationist thinking, and explores the basic statistics that creationists tend to ignore, including elementary genetics, the age of the Earth, and fossil dating. His book gives readers the tools they need for detecting and disassembling the ideas most frequently repeated by creationists"--Provided by publisher. |

Fitch takes his readers through the arguments used by creationists to question the science of evolution. He clearly delineates the fallacies in logic that characterize creationist thinking, and explores the basic statistics that creationists tend to ignore, including elementary genetics, the age of the Earth, and fossil dating. His book gives readers the tools they need for detecting and disassembling the ideas most frequently repeated by creationists"--Provided by publisher.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Print version record.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Creationism.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85033830</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Religion and science.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85112579</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Logic.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85078106</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Evolution (Biology)</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh90004042</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Faith and reason.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85046933</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="2"><subfield code="a">Religion and Science</subfield><subfield code="0">https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D012070</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Créationnisme.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Religion et sciences.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Foi et raison.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">creationism (religious ideology)</subfield><subfield code="2">aat</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Life Sciences</subfield><subfield code="x">Evolution.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Creationism</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Evolution (Biology)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Faith and reason</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Logic</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Religion and science</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">The Three Failures of Creationism (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCGcdCcMrF9GkCcGm7X7d73</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Fitch, Walter M., 1929-2011.</subfield><subfield code="t">Three failures of creationism.</subfield><subfield code="d">Berkeley : University of California Press, ©2012</subfield><subfield code="z">9780520270534</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 2011018982</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)730906172</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=419921</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Coutts Information Services</subfield><subfield code="b">COUT</subfield><subfield code="n">20433795</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">De Gruyter</subfield><subfield code="b">DEGR</subfield><subfield code="n">9780520951662</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL -

Logic, logical fallacies, and rhetoric -- The basics -- Some simple math and statistics -- "Young-earth" creationism. "Walter M. Fitch, a pioneer in the study of molecular evolution, has written this cogent overview of why creationism fails with respect to all the fundamentals of scientific inquiry. He explains the basics of logic and rhetoric at the heart of scientific thinking, shows what a logical syllogism is, and tells how one can detect that an argument is logically fallacious, and therefore invalid, or even duplicitous. Fitch takes his readers through the arguments used by creationists to question the science of evolution. He clearly delineates the fallacies in logic that characterize creationist thinking, and explores the basic statistics that creationists tend to ignore, including elementary genetics, the age of the Earth, and fossil dating.
